Sheer perversity once suggested to me an artifact Meteor Magnet that sometimes attracted Gifts from Heaven during battle. Since that spell is rather low PREC, the bearer might actually live decently long.
The KODP fan in me wouldn't mind seeing an item that cast Flaming Arrows, either.
Would it be thematic for kills (lifeless need not apply) with a Jade Knife in the hands of a blood priest to have a chance to count as blood sacrifices?

Oooooh! All good suggestions! I especially like the jade knife one.

Things that change dominion strength before (or during) combat as a (even psychological?) counter against immortals would be wonderful.

The suggestions about the Jade Knife and the sword/stake/whatever that kills immortals are *excellent.* If the devs ever wondered what kind of racial item Machaka could have, that knife would be a great one

And something for immortals to really fear would be nice as well.

I think that if you're going to make an item that permanently kills immortals, that it would have to be a unique artifact, and require level 5 skill in three or more magic paths. Preferably useful gem types such as nature, death, and astral.

I writted down about an immortal slaying sword ... below.

Now I add Lythanies of Faith ... an item astral+fire that can have a random effect before battle if handled by a priest ... (raising morale, or stats or other things) or simply creating more lythanies.

Those represent the pre-battle blessing, sermons and so on, spoken by priest reading ancient holy texts, that their presence is similar to a relic one.
